H.R. 9612 · 117th Congress
Protecting Adopting Families from Audits Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
1 cosponsor · 1 R

This bill requires the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to submit a written report to the congressional tax committees comparing the audit rate of individual taxpayers who claim the adoption tax credit to the audit rate of those taxpayers who do not claim such credit.
